Description

Welcome to our house on the sunny hills of Magagnosc !
We have a house just outside Grasse where we can offer accommodation in three self contained apartments. Two one bedroom apartments and one two bedroom apartment.
If you need accomodation for a longer stay during the winter period pls contact me for a quote.

This one is named the Citronnier (lemon tree)
The apartment is 40m2, has a large bedroom with double bed, bathroom , kitchen,and living with a convertible sofa bed for 2 people.

They all have private balconies with a wonderful view down to the sea (Cannes/Mandelieu/Theoule), the Esterel mountains and the Tanneron forest, the latter well known for its Mimosa.
As for the apartments, they have their private entry, fully furnished and equipped, free wifi, television, washing machines. I provide sheets and towels, so you can just drop your suitcase and start the holidays immediately upon arrival.

Magagnosc is a small hamlet, or rather several small hamlets plus a very large residential area. 4 km to Grasse, 35 km to Nice and 20 km to Cannes. Closest skiing resort is Gréolieres, around 45 minutes drive. Lots of typical Provencal villages aswell : Biot, Valbonne, Mougins, Gourdon, Saint Paul de Vence to name a few.
As we are so close to everything it is just a question of time what you will be able to do.
Golfing, hiking, biking, beach, shopping…………….
You will find maps, guides and information in your apartment and the tourist office of Grasse also have a very complete website. And we’ve lived here for 16 years and are more than happy to give you some ideas of what to do.
A MUST while in Grasse is of course the Perfume museums, my favourites are the International Perfume Museum which was recently renovated, then the Fragonard museum which offers free guided tours, both of these are situated in the Centre of Grasse. Less known by visitors is the beautiful Cathedral of Grasse, worth a visit, and if you come in July and August you can enjoy a perfumed siesta in the centre of town. Also the little streets with lots of nice shops and restaurants is worth a visit, will give you the names of our favorites once you get here.
If travelling with children, I would also recommend going to Monaco and visit the Oceanographic Museum, Antibes with its well known Marineland, or why not go to the lake of Saint Cassien and rent a pedalboat or canoe.
Bus stops on top of the street for excursions to Nice
See you soon!

House rules

Houserules!
First of all, feel at home, as we have three apartments and everyone should be able to enjoy their stay, just a few rules so that everything is clear:
Pls do not make a lot of noise, we live in a residential area with people working, so pls respect especially late at night. Noise meaning loud music, screaming, not normal talking and laughing..
Do not park anywhere else than on our parking, you can load and unload outside apartments
Do not hang clothing and towels on balcony rack, there is a rack for this purpose on the inside of balcony, also if you have to shake off sand, do that on the entrance side of the apartment, not out from balcony, it may end up in our supper.
Garbage is to be kept inside apartment until you throw it in the bins situated on your left hand walking out from our house, do not leave outside door as cats and dogs can come and tear them open.
Smoking is permitted outside, on balcony, for everyones comfort we kindly ask you not to smoke inside apartment, if not disturbing anyone it is also permitted by pool.
Pool: open for our guests from 9am to 6pm from Monday to Friday, we reserve the right to deny access if we have to treat the water to ensure its quality. Children must be accompanied by an adult who can swim. Do not “reserve” sun chairs by laying towels on them if not by the pool. This may sound a bit strict, we are flexible, but when all apartments are full we do need a few rules

Reviews for this host's other properties

It was the peace and tranquility that we found here and convinced us. Whoever comes to visit these alternative type of holiday-making, wins a lot. At the same time we were able at any time to take the opportunity and take the bus to Nice. Our goal to recover on vacation, we have achieved.

We were welcomed very warmly by Tove. It is advisable to take the house from the nearby main road below her. From above it is very close. The Tove had however recommended in advance equal to right us. The apartment is equipped in the Nordic-inspired style with a Mediterranean flair. That was much appreciated. The beds are clean and adequately furnished with respect. The view to the Mediterranean Sea from the windows and from the balcony is breathtaking. The camp is very quiet. The neighborhood is seen very rarely. The huge palm trees in the garden are gorgeous. When one is among them by the pool, you feel you are on a deserted island. The internet was very much appreciated. The pool is very clean and helps to absolute relaxation. My brother did not want to go with Jörg in the cities like Cannes or Monaco, he enjoyed the rare peace and quiet by the pool. The not you get at home all year round. Bus stop is walk a few minutes. Tove has cared for us touching. Even the empties it has disposed us. They brought us delicious own tomatoes from the garden. Of the own herbs we could help ourselves too. It was from the outset a very intimate trustworthy relationship between us and Tove and her family. They helped us with advice and day at any time. When the bus did not come again, probably a strike, she offered us to go to a festival in Grasse with her car. This is of course by no means. We found this very nice. In Tove you feel right at home warmly canceled. You can always be reached and lives indeed in the same house. This gives the guest a sense of security. You can completely relax and unwind. Towels and sheets are provided by it available for free. No deposit is required. In it one sees their trust towards the guest. So it has very dotted with us. Staying in their private house with separate entrance for us was very relaxing. Now it's been 3 weeks and we still think almost daily to the beautiful time back. It pulls from the memories, thoughts. It does not take pictures. The beautiful countryside has too often still in mind. The area is just beautiful. We intend to come back next year. There are still many undiscovered places. Thank Tove again very much for your hospitality and presence around the clock. It sincerely greet Barbara, Benedict, Katja and Jörg from Engen from Lake Constance, Germany

We had a wonderfull time! Appartment was really nice! Also really large enough for 4 people. The kids loved their room and the keys for dreams! Also we loved the pool, and not forget the view. (Also nice when there are tunderstorms.) Tove is a great host. Grasse is easily reached by car but also by bus. Tove will give all information needed! So do not hesitate to book!

We had a wonderful holiday. The apartment is large and has a pleasant environment. Grasse and a lot of other places are within good reach by car. From the balcony there is a nice view up to the Mediterranean Sea side. We warmly recommend this apartment, if you're looking for a relaxed and easy going holiday in the Provence. Tove is a really nice host and make things very easy for her guests. We will gladly come again.

We had a very nice week at Tove, a courteous, but also restrained hostess with great love for animals. The view is really wonderful, so we could see the evening on the balcony in warm temperatures and good food, we shopped at the nearby supermarket, enjoy. This, of course, a car is recommended, but it is wonderful with the bus to and from Nice. The holding Selle is only 2min away, the text says something about 2km, what is wrong, and a ticket costs only 1.50 €. If one settles, you can do without car.

A nice stay, a very nice and helpful hostess and a wonderful view to the sea! The apartment is clean and all there what you need. One should look for the address but better with the Navi ...! 'll Be back!

Tove and her family were very helpful and friendly. The apartment was fantastic, clean and had a great view of the Mediterranean and surrounding areas. Thank you for working so hard to keep the pool clean.
